Are blacks who are against illegal immigration automatic racists as whites are?
Answer:
I see you need a visit from the PC police young man! Only whites can be racist. Also,the degree of racism in you increases if you are extra light.
are white people the only ones who can be racist?
If the reasons are the same as some of the sentiments I've seen expressed on this forum. Yes.
Only if they choose to be just as only those whites that are racist because they choose to be. Not all whites are racist just as not every black is racist. Some have the brains to know better.
Illegal alien is NOT a race so those of us who want these criminals out of our country are not racists no matter what color we are.
It's just another way the cons divide Americans. To divert attention away from themselves for hiring the illegals to work their fields and factories, they send their shills focus attention on the cheap labor themselves, while at the same time having their people label Americans opposing slave scab labor as being hicks and racists.
Blacks and whites oppose immigration for different reasons-I'm not saying whites and/or blacks are racists. But to know why someone doesn't want someone from another country to enter theirs, ask them why-I asked a someone white a few weeks ago why he is oppose to immigration. His response was he doesn't want someone from another country on his land. A day later, I asked someone black and they said if they come here taxes go up. I'm not supporting either response, but maybe this will shine some light on your question.
lol Good question. My answer is no. Don't ya know.blacks can't be racist, silly!
Who says that whites that are against illegal immigration are automatic racists? If your being accused of being one it's for something else I'm sure. I'm black and I am against illegals from entering our country no matter where they are from. And I don't consider whites who feel the same way to be racist.
And where are you and 'white girl' (the comment above mine unless it was deleted)getting the idea that blacks can't be racists? We can. The difference is that we've had to deal with more of the negative effects of racism while whites have benefited from it. Anyone can be racist. Just like anyone can be stupid as you so effectively demonstrated.
being against illegal immigration isn't racism in the first place. that's realism
Just curious why anyone of any race is a racist for wanting illegals out of our country. It's a legal issue only those who want these illegals are calling it a racial issue.
No, what makes a person racist it's their attitude.
Here is the definition:
racism
The belief that some races are inherently superior (physically, intellectually, or culturally) to others and therefore have a right to dominate them. In the United States, racism, particularly by whites against blacks, has created profound racial tension and conflict in virtually all aspects of American society. Until the breakthroughs achieved by the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s, white domination over blacks was institutionalized and supported in all branches and levels of government, by denying blacks their civil rights and opportunities to participate in political, economic, and social communities.
racism
1. the prejudice that members of one race are intrinsically superior to members of other races
2. discriminatory or abusive behavior towards members of another race
I hope I answer you question.
P.S. Most of the people that are racist won't admit it, see it and they are always justifying their hate.
I wouldn't think that would matter what "color" someone was . If they are here illegally,it doesn't their race.
If you aren't one of the race, you are a racist or worthless to them. But no one is as bad as a white person because that's the uniting propaganda. What will they do when they run out of whites to blame?
Blacks are the most racist people there are today.
BET, NAACP, Negro College Fund, etc.
They don't like Mexicans, legal or not.
Oh, please! Illegal immigration is NOT a racist issue! It is about the LAW!
It doesn't matter where the illegal comes from (e.g., Canada, England, Egypt, Africa or Cuba). If they are ILLEGAL, they are criminals for breaking our laws.
(BTW, Mexican is not a race, they are the citizens of another country.)
NO! I think you are confusing Prejudice and Racism. Racism is about power. It is taking a prejudice view and exercising power over a group of people. African American do not have the power to stop Illegal Immigrates from becoming Citizens. African-Americans do not control Congress, the Court System, or the Presidency of the United States. White People Control all of that. They have the ability to decided Immigration and many other issues all by themselves.
African-American who are U.S. Citizens just as many other U.S. Citizens have legitimate reasons for apposing Illegal Immigrates from becoming U.S. Citizens. That does not mean so me African-American are not prejudice. Their are many reasons to appose Citizenship of Illegal Immigrates, however neither being prejudice or having a reason for apposing Citizenship would make African-Americans Racist.
I hope this clears up this issue and puts this matter to bed!
So lets see, all whites are racists and if a black person takes a stance that illegal immigration is bad for our country then, they're racists too? Sounds like some very racist bigoted dribble to me!
I am not really sure what your question is... Are you insinuating that white Americans are racist against black Americans, or that white Americans are racist against illegal immigrants (which happen to be a mulitude of races/colors/cultures-to have white included in that)? To answer your question, black Americans (same as any other color American) who want our laws to be followed by the illegals breaking it are not racist. It seems that anytime someone disagrees with another person, or dislikes an idea they might have, the insulted person cries racism. It's happens so much that the word racism has almost lost it's meaning entirely...
Anyone against illegal immigration is NOT a racist!
No they are not! For that matter being against illegal immigration (or anything illegal) is not racism. Its legalism. And one who recommends and encourges legalism is a legalist. Also, if being against illegal immigration will be called racist, Id rather support that kind of racism then any other or illegal immigration. so. keep up. You are on the right track. Illegal is illegal. No matter what! Period.
Also, please note that neither of the race are racists. There are people of that kind in every race, blcak, white, brown, orientel. whatever. We cannot and should not generalise it basing on a few individuals. Please dont do that. See the good people that are not your or my own race and are still friends and even spouses of us.
Illegal aliens are not a race, as they are a group of people composed of many nationalities. Illegal aliens come in every skin color and from many cultural and ethnic backgrounds.
It is not a racial issue. It is a legal issue.
There is no benefit to lower and middle class Americans for the illegal aliens to be here. There are economic reasons to not want them here as well as the legal issues. Those who oppose illegal aliens come in all colors, cultural and ethnic backgrounds.
The race card is being played because there is no true rationality to allow illegal aliens to remain here in any legal sense.
We support legal immigration. Legal immigrants also come in every skin color, and many ethnic and cultural backgrounds.
your post is a little racist.basically said white people are racists.
Any american who is against illegal immigration is not a racist...they are american and thats all.
Racists come in all colors and from all socio-economic levels.
Racism comes from fear and ignorance - and those are not confined to the Caucasian race.
I don't think anyone who is against illegal immigration CRIMINALS are racists!
It's not a matter of color it's a matter of breaking the law!
Great question.
